The Grocery Store.

They've recently revamped our stuffy little neighborhood Safeway into a "Safeway Lifestyle Store" where they now carry gorgeous Reidel glasses and tonnes of yummy organics and even have a nut bar. Honestly - this little wooden carousel where you can mix and match your own nuts and make them into.. well, nut butter. They put in hardwood floors and track lighting, a deli and a Starbucks, and hired a really super sexy pharmacist that will make you want to take your Valtrex prescription somewhere else. Everyone looks so much better, sexier, cast in shadow among the apples and garlic, though if you haven't been there before it's a little bewildering. It now seems a little shameful not to get dressed up to do your grocery shopping, the lighting is better than most clubs in town - though their placement of various vibrating profalactics on the OUTSIDE isle of the pharmacy is a strange, though hilarious, choice.

And now the Tuesday expeditions to see local Fire Hall 1 do their shopping are all the more hilarious. They're there every Tuesday to do the shopping, and every housewife and dorm dwelling woman know that fact. Watching the women caressing their apples and being terribly choosey about their kielbasa has never been more amusing, especailly since they had staked out the beautifully lit places by the plums and dragon fruit. Given, I was there by the prepackaged salad mixes kneading pickled cabbage and drooling lit by the one flourescent bulb there was left in the whole shop.. but damn they're handsome. That new Lifestyle Safeway really gets me hot. Mostly because of the nut butters.
